Creating Microsoft Application Exception Classes

[SS]

Hi All,

I am trying to create a simple DBException Class which I want to use in
different apps.

Here is what I am doing:

1. I Created a VB Class
Imports Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionManagement

Imports System.Data.SqlClient

Public Class DBExceptionPublisher

Implements IExceptionPublisher

Private SQL_CONNECTION_STRING As String = _

"User Id=sqamar;" & _

"Password=password;" & _

"Server=trd-11982;" & _

"DataBase=NX20;"

Public Sub Publish(ByVal exception As System.Exception, _

ByVal additionalInfo As System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection ,
_

ByVal configSettings As System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection )
_

Implements
Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionManagement.IE xceptionPublisher.Publish

Dim strConn As String = SQL_CONNECTION_STRING

Dim scnnFTTP As New SqlConnection(strConn)

Dim scmd As New SqlCommand("spTestTable", scnnFTTP)

Try

scnnFTTP.Open()

scmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure

With scmd.Parameters

..Add(New SqlParameter("@paramin", SqlDbType.VarChar)).Value = "Hello String"

End With

Dim myReader As SqlDataReader = scmd.ExecuteReader()

Catch expSQL As SqlException

MessageBox.Show(expSQL.Message())

End Try

End Sub

End Class

2. Created a app.config file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<configuration>

<configSections>

<section name="exceptionManagement"
type="Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionManagem ent.ExceptionManagerSectio
nHandler,Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionMana gement" />

</configSections>

<exceptionManagement mode="on">

<publisher assembly="VB_App_Test" type="VB_App_Test.DBExceptionPublisher" />

</exceptionManagement>

</configuration>

3. In my VB Form I did:

Try
Dim x As Integer
Dim y As Integer

y = 0
x = 1 / y

Catch ex As Exception
ExceptionManager.Publish(ex)
End Try

This works fine but when I create another project and reference this dll it
gives me an error:

Argument not specified for parameter 'additionalInfo' of 'Public Overridable
NotOverridable Sub Publish(exception As System.Exception, additionalInfo As
System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection , configSettings As
System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection )'.
C:\Documents and Settings\slqamar\My Documents\Visual Studio
Projects\ExceptionManagerTestApp\Form1.vb(65): Argument not specified for
parameter 'configSettings' of 'Public Overridable NotOverridable Sub
Publish(exception As System.Exception, additionalInfo As
System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection , configSettings As
System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection )'.

PLease can someone tell me what I am doing wrong.

Thx
